Classic Game Room - VOLTRON: DEFENDER OF THE UNIVERSE game review

[Lupucillo]

Go-Bots!!

[BuddermilkPwn3dU]

Bucky O' Hare

[renanobom2]

The soundtrack looks to be good btw

[Itsallover57]

The Voltron parts are qte? Weak.

[greytale]

Holy shit, I loved this as a kid... I can't believe they FINALLY made a game out of it.

It's about damn time. Like... waiting for DOOM to become a movie like 10 years later, lol

[coolguy5772]

I`m downloading it right now on my ps3 :D

[smashfanwii]

How about a game based on The Great American Hero? That'd be awesome just for how cheesy they could go with it.

[IshidaTheQuincy]

We need a Silverhawks video game.

[Kahalasama]

Isn't the narrator's voice in the game the same as Optimus Prime? If so, awesome.

[coolguy5772]

I don`t know if you like this kind of games. But maybe you can review some games from the website nitrome.com It haves all kind of fun games.

I dont know, I should try it.

[w4rr10r11]

Probably not an 80's cartoon but Sailor Moon needs a game. If there's one out, a new one. I used to love that show growing up. See if Mohammad from Qatar has a Sailor Moon game.

[SakuraAvalon]

@w4rr10r11 Kinda odd, you'd think Sailor Moon would've seen a couple videogames, it was the more prominent Shoujo anime. As Dragon Ball Z was the more prominent Shounen anime.

[Strideo1]

Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors! Hell yeah!

[Matrilwood]

This game looks extremely corny, but good at the same time.

('Course the moment I became a Brony, Extremely-Corny became my middle name)

[7amanney]

could you review rayman origins ??

[desupocalypse]

A generation of kids will grow up never having watched Voltron or having a Voltron toy and losing the sword.

Sad.

[micol19]

we need a ulysses 31 game

[KeiHime013]

I'm getting this just because I'm a huge fan of the original Voltron.

[pennybeggar]

We need a mother-fuckin' Rock Lords game.

[Scopie33]

Should make a Star Fleet game based on that old puppet show...

[rdrcub3]

Dont forget the Silverhawks

[Lauderdale80]

LOL I LOVED MASK & PROBABLY HAVE SOME MASK ACTION FIGURES IN A TIY BOX AT MY MOTHERS ... SHE REFUSES TO THROW OUT MY OLD TOYS ... weird

[CAPCOM784]

galaxy rangers would be a great game to come out with-i loved the show :))

[slifer1993]

Teh shuld alsoe make game abute The Centurions

[Mostpowerisgod]

Voltron defenders of the near universe wasn't even the same anime as Voltron/Golion

[Ndev07]

"And I'll form my head" :)

Growing up in the 80's, I went by my local toy store to see Voltron in the store window every school day religiously... got em for my bday, it was spectacular!

[OfficialMikaUSA]

I wish they just make Voltron into a live action movie, instead of Transformers.

[thekoolkurt]

@OfficialMikaUSA

There was one being made a while ago but the script turned out terrible so they basically scrapped the project.

[OfficialMikaUSA]

@thekoolkurt Awww, that really sucks. We really need a Voltron movie. Haha.

[StrawberryGuy86]

@OfficialMikaUSA I hope it won't be made by Michael Bay!

[OfficialMikaUSA]

@StrawberryGuy86 Oh no! It better not be! Probably like a Peter Jackson or something.

[kotogoto00]

Were Optimus Prime and Voltron frat brothers in 80s Robot Hooooouse?! It all makes sense now.

[kotogoto00]

Optimus Prime was a pretty cool guy to narrate the opening for Voltron. The two must have been roommates in college or something.

[thedavidmango]

COLTRON

[gluserty]

Nice game; I owned the Voltron figure ("with die-cast parts!") back in 1985.

[LargeRedRizla]

M.A.S.K. or Jayce & The Wheeled Warriors. Perfect for gaming franchises.

[spacexploder]

do a shot every time he says voltron

[Strideo1]

@spacexploder Do a shot anytime anyone says Voltron.

[TheSpyChecker]

@spacexploder but uhm...thats a lot of uhm...shots, yea?

[Eco10100]

@spacexploder i m so drunk i i i dont know wer e i m at right now

[Ripknotz]

@spacexploder

At first I was like "challenge accepted" then the second half of the video was like "please god no"

[wondorfamily]

I Want To Download That Game and The Series Too... I Saw That Review with the DVD Version

[blott1978]

Yeah, it's about time...to bad it sucks balls.

[teddyrubskin]

of course... Vehicle Voltron is great!!

[Hayseed1976]

Mask would be cool!

[RedWolf3487]

5:17 VOLTRAWN, PAWNCH!!!!!

[Dukefazon]

I'd like to see a good Guyver game.

[oriam2343]

Megas XLR would've scraped Voltron.

[BlueSeez]

@oriam2343 *facepalm*

Voltron is an amazing 80s reference what brings you kids here.

[oriam2343]

@BlueSeez I know who voltron is, I just like Megas better, and what you mean kid? Im 19 >.>

[mahoromaticfan15]

They should make an Inhumanoids game!

[KRstar78]

@mahoromaticfan15 yes please!!!!!

[AllieRX87]

I wonder if this was released in Japan as GoLion.

[AllieRX87]

I hope they do the same thing for Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

[makman13]

Narrated by OPTIMUS PRIME. Fuck yeah!

[DoxiMoxi]

What about some more retro review? N64?

[KoopasRevengeHome]

i knew ud appreciate this more than ign, youre more sophisticated :P

[rob5000x1]

they should make a game about toejam and earl

[AnimaxRex]

awesom

[EpicHotCheese]

My VOLTRON action figure took an arrow in the knee.

[rofyle]

Oh yeah, awesome Voltron. The only thing missing is a reference to Tranzor Z.

[CaptainLumpyDog]

@Frickfrock999

Damn! Beat me to it! LOL

[Broyale26]

@CaptainLumpyDog

That's what my dad said to my little league coach after he found out I sucked his cock back in 4th grade.

[bigguyjames34]

I want to see an Inspector gadget game.

[Hasuklakle]

@bigguyjames34

There is one for ps1 but its a puzzle game !

[8bitPikachu]

Now they need Voltromas, transformable tomas the tank engine, look it up

[haravtar]

at last not another skylander review.

[LaVeyCharkusVeros]

Paris: "...AND I'LL GIVE THE HEAD!"

[Phantom1325]

Something something arrow to the knee

[Phantom1325]

Awww Power Rangers Lost Galaxy good memories

[gagaman]

There was a Thundercats game on the Amiga but...you don't wanna play that.

[pibugi]

how bout Rude Dog?!



[friedinsugar]

A Chocobot game would be nice...

[tape4684]

I seriously missed the like button sorry !!! Ugh this really happens sorry.!!!

[neojake999gamer]

No... F'ing... WAY!!!! I am totally getting this! If only there was a retail release instead of download!

[koukos09]

awesome music indeed.how about an ultraman video game.

[UnkleBackwards]

you forgot to mention the pause feature audio.

[silenthicks]

looks shithouse, couldve made a much better game with this material

[MEGAMAND1]

Or the mighty Orbots!!

[MEGAMAND1]

I want a game staring the BIONIC SIX!!

[bahamut245]

i can see Jem and The Holograms game play like a guitar hero or rock band clone. It was a great series i just don't see them being able to do much with it as a video game.

[frickfrock999]

A Jem and The Holograms game would be outrageous.

Truly outrageous.

[bencheshire]

@Broyale26 Sorry you flamed to conclusions.

[Broyale26]

@bencheshire

Judging by your original comment, my conclusions were accurate.

[AcidBurn5009]

do Thundercats  ASAP

[H3RM3S78]

You forgot Silverhawks

[a2r1v1i2s]

Mask would be an awesome video game... the toys were amazing.

[Broyale26]

@a2r1v1i2s

And a great boyfriend.....if he fancied men.

[Broyale26]

@a2r1v1i2s

I wish he'd review his sex toy collection.

[rojman123]

Always thought defending the whole universe would be a pretty tall order.

[Wampaa]

Is Voltron based off a true story?

[SOLIDSNAKEXXX360]

@Wampaa fuck you

[Broyale26]

@SOLIDSNAKEXXX360

And when you're down with him, fuck me.

[reemCGR]

@Wampaa Of course XD

[WerDeDeDe]

@Wampaa I think its based of World War .II

[dragonbrad98]

@Wampaa no....Voltron IS a true story..

[MrSuzukahime]

@Wampaa it might be the universe is so big

[goldensolder44]

I think you can find the soundtrack here on youtube



[bencheshire]

I heard this was awful... Mark's enthusiasm sometimes seems a bit misplaced.

[iChocolatex33]

@bencheshire it's because he has simpler expectations for games. most people are like OMG GRAPHICS INTENSE GAMEPLAY GREAT STORY, but he's fine with anything that he can have fun with a for a bit

[nisbahmumtaz909]

@iChocolatex33

So, basically, he's a true gamer.

[Broyale26]

@bencheshire

Sorry you let other media outlets mislead you into believing that anything non-AAA can't possibly be fun to play. Enjoy the overhyped, cookie-cutter games the media told you should be playing cause you're incapable of thinking for yourself.

[Volviert]

@bencheshire

It´s a nice game, but it´s a little short.

[Shanedapain3991]

VOLTRON IS THE BEST POWER RAINGERS SEIERIES 8D (hears angry mob)

[tribesofca]

I like VOLTRON ..I used to watch the TV show when I was a kid.

[Tdot21st]

nice

[DarkMProductions]

Though its from the 90's, a show called King Arther and the Knights of Justice would make an awesome video game too.

[Riverhill]

@DarkMProductions There actually was one, made by Enix for SNES :-)

[Broyale26]

@DarkMProductions

That was a badass cartoon. Thanks for reminding me of this kickass show.

[marvelmania]

galaxy rangers? mark just knows what I like ^^

[swss4rmy]

i prefer 2D shmup or 2D sidescroll for 80's games please.. @_@

[Broyale26]

@swss4rmy

Any comment that mentions 2d shmups is packed with win. I, too, prefer 2D shmup gaming, though my preference is for the vertical, mid-late '90's to mid '00's titles.

[Stanford85]

You forgot , The Visionairies!

[Tricob1974]

@Stanford85 - Not to mention Inhumanoids. :-)

[vegettoSSJ3ROCKSS]

we need a better Voltron (GoLion) game for the PS3, I hope for a Mazinger Z, Escaflowne or Evangelion videogame for the PS3 

[shadowhexogram]

Hm. Shows in the 80s that could use a good video game adaptation? Hm. Perhaps some four legged creatures should also be up for grabs.

[xemption]

"and unless your sporting an 80's style mullet you have no chance anyway" lol

[Addicted2gaming]

Activate interlock! Dynotherms connected! Infracells UP! Mega thrusters are GOOOOOO

[ReploidSigma]

4:18 I would like to see a videogame based on Silverhawks or The Centurions ("Power X-treme!")

[cyx7]

OH HELLS YEAH

JAYCE N' DEM WHEELED WARRIOR

THEY MAH HOLMS YO

[shaurz]

I can't believe they never made a Voltron game before this. Not even a Famicom game? The nearest we got was Baltron.

[trkoby]

...How about an Inhumanoids Video Game???

[spiderjerusalem100]

Someone needs to make a Ulysses 31 videogame.

Badass space Jesus!

[trkoby]

FUCK YEA we need a Wheeled Warriors video game! Those toys were the shit! Mark, how about you start the development? Awww, shucks.

[digioverlord]

i was waiting for mark to review this XD

[MegaMonkeyExtreme]

Come now Mark, you have been secretly growing an '80s mullet, haven't you?

[cepilloTV]

A Chuck Norris : Karate Kommandos game =XDDDDD

[chairuser4]

My favorite show ever next to Robotech

[chairuser4]

My favorite show ever next to Robotech

[njdude79]

a jem game lol i heard she was truly outragous

[socreus]

I think you forgot saber rider and the star sheriffs.?

[MarbleZoneGames]

I used to play Transbot on the Master System and pretend it was Voltron.

[FastTquick]

This is for Voltron fans only. Everyone else should just not bother with boring, lousy game.

[AnimeHiHamtaro]

So much better then ign

[spiff2268]

How about a Silverhawks video game? That would rule! Also, I'd totally forgotten that Optimus Prime introduced Voltron.

[Shinyafreak]

@spiff2268 Man me too, I should really get this series on DVD

[ReviewZoneHD]

im sub'd, love the channel and reviews, but this game does blow. i did a review on it as well.

[bmdposse]

You should have added The Gobots. They need some love in some video games as well.

[01Zipang]

we need a speed racer game..

[Progearspec]

@01Zipang There was one by namco for the PS1.

[01Zipang]

@Progearspec

correction, a good speed racer game

[sglider]

Sorry, this game blows. 

[srbclarke]

Looks awesome, I'll have to download this. Does it have an online leader scoreboard? I might have to pull the lions out of the cupboard! Too bad I've lost a couple of the pilots over the years.

[Qorser]

And Bionic 6!!!

[SolidThugKnuckles]

AND I'LL FORM THE HEAD!

[Commandos12]

i misse the vehicle ones Q_Q

[flexor212000]

I just love how they used all the right music, sound effects, and TV clips. Also a nuance that is just awesome. Hit pause "We will be back to Voltron after these messages".. "Now back to voltron". EPIC. I have the demo. Gotta purchase it though. Thanks for giving us 28-34 year olds some love lol

[v2791]

the "universe" is a lot to defend

[NINJACH0P957]

Wait, did Mark just end the review by not losing?

[JULIOUCHIHA89]

mee too XD

[theautobotjedi]

who dosent like voltron  best cartoon ever

[mocthezuma]

This is how you update an old comic!!! Voltron FTW!

The Green Lantern, Fantastic Four. Ironman, Batman, Gi Joe/Action Force and Hulk have all missed the point completely.

And a M.A.S.K. game would be awesome!!!

I remember when I was a kid and I had a SNES, and I heard that a MASK gamwas going to be released I was over the moon with excitement. One of the biggest disappointments ever when I found out it was that stupid Jim Carey movie crap. :(

Semitrailers of awesomeness and flying cars ftw!

[Tha1DJPLex]

I Favorited when he said Galaxy Rangers!!!

[kingcoapa]

I remember this and Mazinger Z were my favourite cartoons back then.

they should make a Mazinger Z game too...

[GrubGripe]

VOLTRON!!!!

[ironhaas503]

all christians look like voltron..

[Lib3rator13]

I'm more of a golion fan but this delivers.

[Tennindo]

Thundercats!!!

[bluesgurugod]

I thought this was the SKYLANDERS channel?

[TankT9]

@bluesgurugod no it's Lord's Karnage channle and Heyzoos, check them up and you will be CONFUSED EVEN MORE!

[sylvur]

BUYING RIGHT NOW!!!! I haven't turned on my 360 for a whole month now and this game alone is enough of a reason to do so.... aww darnit, stupid Dashboard update! Oh well, it'll be worth the wait.

[hinaruto14]

1:18 does that alien has drill nipples?

[rob45645]

I just wished I was a children of the 80's so I would have learned from an early childhood to punch aliens with lion-like robots...

[ORACLE063]

yes but can i play as Sven? 

[Sagasidad1]

fuuuuuuuuuuuu oblivion is to longgggggggggggggggggggggg

[Unit645]

I just watched EVERY original episode in one sitting thanks to Netflix.

[soulnomod]

I've never watched a Voltron tv show or movie before, now after i've watched this video I realized something. To play this game, I MUST WATCH THE TV SHOW!

[76cpete]

U forgot Silverhawks...space fightin with electric guitars that shoot...music lasers - it was wicked - yermomsface

[tywhite3]

How do you open up a video? PETER CULLEN DOING 80'S CARTOON VOICEOVERS!

[hyfynorris]

5:17 FALCOON PUUNCH!!!!!!!!!

[Shaderaygun]

I think they should hand the Voltron License over to the guys who made Godzilla Unleashed.

[PCGamer77]

Thanks Mark, this review made my week.

[newlyfoundrenegade]

I knew it was a good game. IGN can go kill themselves.

[PCGamer77]

@newlyfoundrenegade Gamespot trashed it too. What exactly were they expecting?
